Regularly inspect the fuel system components. All lines, fittings, and
bulbs should be flexible and not corroded. If fittings or other components
are found to be cracked, they should be replaced at once. If you use
your boat infrequently or do not use it for an extended period of time, a
fuel conditioner should be added to a full tank of fuel to prevent fuel
deterioration and damage to the fuel system.

A fuel filter is installed in the transom area of your EdgeWater 225 EX. This is a fuel/water separator type
of filter and is designed to prevent water from entering your engine. The fuel filter element is a spin-off type
element. At a minimum, this element should be replaced at the beginning of every boating season. Always
carry a filter wrench and spare filter of the type supplied on your boat.
